DEATH’S SAD ROLL.
At 2 o clock on last Friday afternoon
December 29th, 1893, the spirit of Mrs
A. C. Sloan passed peacefully away,
at the residence of her son, Capt. W.
C. Slorn, in this city.
Mrs. Sloan was the relict of the late
Capt. A. C. Sloan, whose tragic death
about two years ago is well kuowu to
our readers. This good woman lived
to the ripe age of 80 years, lacking
about oue month, aud too much cannot
be said in her praise. She was
one of the most tender and
lovable of characters, an ardent
believer iu the Savior Christ, aud
her whole life a sweet benediction to
those arouud her.
Farewell, devoted wife, loving moth
or, trusted frieud ; would that we
could pay littiug tribute to your sacred
memory. Your career on earth reached
its meridian, aud your right virtues
and noble example will long live to
impress others after your body lias
mingled into dust. The calmness, gen
tlencss and purity of your life was but,
a foretaste of that which is piomised
to the faithful iu the end.
The funeral services were held in the
presbyteriac church at 2 o'clock Sat
utday afternoon, and the remains laid
to rest in the McDonough Cemetery.
Peace to her ashes.
One of the saddest deaths it has ever
been our lot to chrouicle, is that of Mr.
Ed McDouald, which occurred at Ash
burn on Saturday night, December 23d,
1893.
His wife and two little cbrildreu had
come to McDonough to spend the
Christmas holidays with Mrs McDouald
parents, Mr. McDonald remaining at
home alone. On the night mentioned
his residence was discovered to be on
fire by some ftiends, and when they
reached it the roof had fallen iu so that
it was impossible to render auy assis
tance.
When the ruins were cleared away
the remains of poor Ed McDonald
were taken out, burned to a horrible
ciuder. Being in the house alone, no
infoimation could be obtained as to
the origin of the fire, but there being
no suspicion to the contrary, it is sup
posed to be purely accidental.
Mr. McDouald leaves a young wife
and two small children to mourn his
sad and untimely end. Scores of
friends in McDonough, his old home
extend sympathy to them aud all the
family in their sore affliction.
The remains were brought here and
interred iu the McDonough cemetery
on Christmas day. May he rost in
peace.
Our entire community was shocked
last Saturday night at the sudden
death of Mrs. M. E. Cochrane, and
the sad circumstances accompanying it.
Mrs. Cochrane was the mother of
Mrs. J. Q. Nolan, and lived at Bartles
ville. She was on a visit iu McDon
ough to her daughter, intending to
spend a month, but was attacked with
heart disease, which resulted in her
sad death.
Mrs. Cochraue was a noble Christian
woman, loved aud esteemed by a large
circle of friends and relatives who
mourn her death beyond words of ex
pression.
Mis. Cochrane was well known and
much admired in McDonough,as well as
at her home in Barnesville ; and to the
stricken and crushed daughter, who
was so fond of her devoted mother,
the condolence of this entire commani
ty goes out iu sincerest sympathy.
The remains were carried to Barnes
ville for intermeut.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the kiug of
mediciues, conquers scrofula, catarrh,
rheumatism and all other blood diseases.
Hood’s and only Hood’s.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and pre
scribed local remedies, and by constant
failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science lias
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s ( a
tarrb Cure, manufactured by F J.
Cheney Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on tbe market.
It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system. They offer one bun
die:*l dollars for any case it fails to cure.
